London Zoo's latest exhibitionists
New exhibit at London Zoo - humans

London Zoo unveiled a new exhibition -- eight humans prowling around wearing little more than fig leaves to cover their modesty.

The "Human Zoo" is intended to show the basic nature of human beings as they frolick throughout the August bank holiday weekend.

"We have set up this exhibit to highlight the spread of man as a plague species and to communicate the importance of man's place in the planet's ecosystem," London Zoo said.

The volunteers mentioned in the article are aged 19 and 24, As you can see from the slide show, they're also nice-looking (and pale! Ever notice how Brits manage to remain pale all the time?)

I guess they didn't make it to Big Brother, so it was the Zoo for them.

Update TBHB's contact in London, Scott, has more serious matters to worry about, so I guess I won't find out if the Zoo's idea man for the exhibit(ionists) was Dr. Cornelius.
Update 2: Commoner Sense is right.
